Recording a Programme

IMPORTANT: When using a new USB hard disk

feature.

free space and be USB 2.0 compatible. If available,
USB 3.0 compatible devices can be used too with the
optional USB 3.0 input on the side of the TV, which
will be positioned above the other USB input. If the
USB drive is not compatible an error message will
be displayed.
To record long duration programmes such as movies,
it is recommended to use USB Hard disk drives
(HDD's).
Recorded programmes are saved into the connected

available to be played on a computer. You can play
the recordings only via your TV.

the USB disk is used for PVR ready features. It also
must be formatted as the primary partition to be used
for the PVR ready features.
Some stream packets may not be recorded because
of signal problems, as a result sometimes videos may
freeze during playback.

can not be used when teletext is on. If a recording starts
from timer when teletext is on, teletext is automatically
turned off. Also teletext usage is disabled when there
